Paddling to States

Though they were racing the length of the wharf, with every stroke the Molokai Canoe Racing Association competitors were hoping to get closer to Kauai. In the last or four regattas in the season, the canoe clubs were competing for the state championship in Kauai just a few weeks away.

The excitement was over, but only for the day. On Aug. 4, 2007, the teams representing Molokai at the Hawaii Canoe Racing Association State Championship will be paddling against some of the best outriggers in the state. The state championship will be located in Hanalei, Kauai and begin at eight in the morning. For more information please contact Suzanne Olson at (808) 651-7965.
